VIA Rail Toronto Montreal recent customer reviews

Horrible. Staff at Toronto station was kind but the ones in Ottawa were rude. Made me pay for a little bigger luggage bag. On top of that, the wifi was not working in the train which was quite a pain as I had some important work to be done.

Very comfortable and clean. Spacious seat and carriage. Attentive staff who brought the catering trolley round several times. Plenty of room to store luggage. Wonderful views.

I recieved a notification of a delay in when the train would arrive to Toronto (screenshot available upon request) which was displayed with no specified timezone. If I can get a reasonable explanation on why they would tell me in Atlantic standard Time without so much as a disclaimer I will gladly forefit my fare, but I don't see that happening
